Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Orphan Шаблон:COI Шаблон:Infobox company
Abionic SA is a company specialized in the development of ultra-rapid in vitro diagnostic tests, located in Lausanne, Switzerland.[1]
Abionic has developed the Шаблон:Proper name, a point-of-care diagnostic platform using its patented nanofluidic technology. The Шаблон:Proper name is implemented in intensive care units and emergency departments to enable early identification of sepsis using a proprietary biomarker, Pancreatic Stone Protein (PSP). Secreted mainly by the pancreas and stomach, PSP rises rapidly in the blood in case of sepsis development and up to 72 hours before today's standard of care.[2] Thus, this is a good and sensitive warning signal to guide doctors in their decision to start antibiotic treatment. Besides the diagnostic value of PSP for sepsis, its availability at the bedside and the availability of the result in 5 minutes provides an additional opportunity to closely monitor patients at risk of developing sepsis.
The Шаблон:Proper name is also used in primary care for the screening of iron deficiency, respiratory allergies[3] and more recently for COVID-19 screening with an antigenic saliva and nasopharyngeal test.
History
Abionic was founded in 2010 at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in Lausanne (EPFL, École Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne) by Dr Nicolas Durand and Dr Iwan Märki.[4]

Increase of the tests' portfolio with the development of D-Dimer (thrombosis) and CRP (inflammation) tests.
Products
Abionic's solution is composed of the Шаблон:Proper name, an in vitro diagnostic device and the consumable called the IVD CAPSULE, which is a single-use and analyte-specific tests.
- Test principle :
The test is based on mixing the patient's sample (whole blood, capillary, serum, saliva or nasopharyngeal sample) with a reagent containing fluorescent markers. The solution is then deposited on the capsule and enters nanochannels by capillary action. The volume-to-surface ratio then forces the molecules to interact immediately together, limiting their travel distance and reducing the incubation time to a few minutes. The concentration of the molecule of interest is then proportional to the intensity of the fluorescent signal measured by the Шаблон:Proper name.
- The different diagnostic tests developed by Abionic:
- The IVD CAPSULE PSP is a quantitative serological test providing results within five minutes for the early detection of sepsis. PSP concentration increases rapidly and up to 72 hours before the onset of clinical symptoms. Its availability at the patient's bedside provides an additional tool to assist healthcare professionals in the management of antibiotic treatment and helps to limit the development of bacterial resistance, which is a major public health issue.
- The IVD CAPSULE Ferritin is a quantitative serological test providing results within 5 minutes from a 50 µL sample of capillary blood. It is intended to be used by healthcare professionals to identify iron deficiencies, affecting mainly pregnant women, people with chronic diseases (heart failure, kidney disease, etc.), bleeding (ulcers) and inability to absorb iron.
- The IVD CAPSULE COVID-19 is a qualitative test performed with a saliva or nasopharyngeal sample and which provides a result within 2 minutes. It identifies the presence of the SARS-CoV-2 to identify contagious individuals and reduce virus spread.
- The IVD CAPSULE Aeroallergens is a semi-quantitative serological test at the point-of-care. It provides results within 12 minutes from a 50 µl sample of capillary blood. It is composed of 7 key allergens (IgE) to help diagnose allergic asthma: Dog (Can f 1), cat (Fed d 1), dust mites (Der p 1 + Der p 2), Alternaria Alternata (Alt a 1) and timothy grass (Phl p 1 + Phl p 5).
Other tests are under development: D-Dimer, CRP, PCT.
